The weather is warming up. I was able to spend a few hours in the shop this weekend. First I had to clean up and throw out a bunch of junk that collected during the cold winter months. That done I did the re-wiring for navigation lights that I mentioned in an earlier post. I replaced the automotive grade 20gauge wire with Mil-Spec 18gauge wire per recommendations I found in other EAA and builder sites. Including the information in the Tony Bingelis book "Sportplane Building Techniques"
I also used small tie-wraps to hold the wires together. Hope that is a good idea. I wanted to keep the wires in place somehow.
Next I started drilling the top leading edge skin and attaching with clecos as I went along.
Slow going - drilling, measuring, drilling, de-burring and then cleco attaching the skins to rib.
Only seven more to go on this wing!
That's it for now - thanks for checking in.
Greg.
